Abstract

An electronic device such as an AC adaptor includes a cable spool. A cable connector is provided on a housing for the AC adaptor. A cable extends from the connector. The cable may be wrapped around the housing in a spool-like manner for storing the cable on the housing. The cable is confined in a spool by a pair of spaced-apart guide members which extend from the housing.
